At eight o'clock, the October villa gleamed with lights and grace.In the living room, Jia, Sara, and Yohan chatted with Noah. His gaze lingered at the closed door of Jemma's bedroom. Sara and Yohan understood his unease, but Noah avoided mentioning her. He engaged in conversations, masking his longing for Jemma. Though his eyes hinted at his eagerness to see her, he remained silent, keeping his emotions hidden from the family's conversation.Just then, Jemma walked into the living room."Jemma!" Jia shouted with excitement. Everyone turned to look at Jemma, but Noah stayed put, facing away from her on the couch.Jemma's eyes scanned the room, pausing at an unfamiliar figure in a black blazer, sitting with his back towards her."Jemma, check it out, guess who's here!" Jia chimed in.Jemma's heart raced, sensing that the person might be Noah. She hesitated, feeling a mix of nerves and unease, hoping it was him.Sara turned to Yohan and suggested, "Yohan, let's head out for dinner now t
Billionaire's Abused Wife 236. I can't keep this secret any longer
In the late hours, shadows danced in the dimly lit room. The air was still. Jemma lay sprawled on her stomach across the bed, gripped in a book. Her tousled hair cascaded over the pillow, framing her face. Her slender figure was draped comfortably across the bed, one leg bent upward while the other stretched out leisurely. Dressed in comfortable nightwear, she seemed relaxed, yet there was a hint of tension in her posture. The soft glow of the bedside lamp lighted the contours of her features, highlighting her quiet expression. As the familiar knock echoed through the room, Jemma's heart raced, but she remained frozen in place. Noah entered, cradling a glass of milk. His eyes fell upon her, a vision of beauty resting on the bed, absorbed in a book. Silently, he set the milk on the desk near the bed and took a seat at the bed's edge, his back turned to her. There was a tangible tension, an unspoken distance between them, both lost in their thoughts, yet so close and yet so far in tha

The party was hosted at the Luxury Dive, an opulent and lavish hotel that exuded luxury from every corner. As guests arrived, they were greeted by an array of stunning decorations that adorned the venue. As Yohan and Sara gracefully welcomed the arriving guests with warm smiles and charming greetings, the atmosphere buzzed with laughter and lively conversation. Jia, surrounded by her group of friends, giggled and chatted lively. Amidst the bustling crowd, all heads turned involuntarily as Jemma made her entrance into the hall. Dressed impeccably in an eye-catching purple midi dress, capturing the gaze of everyone in the room. Her poise and grace were impossible to ignore, and her radiance illuminated the space. The sheer magnetism she bled drew the eyes of the guests, leaving them unable to look away. Whispers of admiration and awe spread amongst the guests. Sara and Yohan welcomed Jemma with big smiles as she walked in. "Jemma, you look amazing!" Sara exclaimed, clearly impresse
Billionaire's Abused Wife 238. Is your duty to me greater than mine?
It was late. Noah carefully tucked Jia into her bed and covered her with a blanket. Just then, Sara walked into the bedroom. Noah approached her, saying, "She's good, fast asleep. You should go rest, Mom." "This year, Yohan didn't give you any birthday gift. Take this as your gift," Sara said. "Mom..." Noah glanced at the papers in confusion. Sara passed them to Noah and explained, "Yohan signed these. Once you sign, everything will be yours." Noah squinted at the documents. "Mom, even you?" Sara looked down, feeling conflicted. "My gift is still pending, Jimmy. I... need to tell you something." "If you're here to tell me to take back the Brooklyn Group, then you've got it wrong," Noah interrupted firmly. "No, Jimmy. Whatever's going on with the Brooklyn Group is between you and Yohan. I don't want to be in the middle of that. But what I need to tell you is something..." Sara tried to explain. "Where's Uncle?" Noah interrupted her. "He's in the study," Sara replied. Noah g

It was four o'clock in the morning when Sara quietly entered the master bedroom. The room was dimly lit, and she noticed Yohan standing near the glass wall, his silhouette outlined against the faint light. He was drinking and smoking. Yohan caught a glimpse of Sara's reflection, prompting him to swiftly extinguish his cigarette. He quickly finished his whiskey in one go, placing the empty glass down, and then turned to face her. Tucking his hands into his pockets, he regarded her with his eyes, reddened and darkened. Sara approached Yohan with slow, weak steps, her eyes red and swollen from crying. Gripping his collar, she questioned him with a heavy, hoarse voice, "Who are you to decide for me to leave you and go? Is the Brooklyn Group and Kevin's will more important to you than your wife? Did you even think before declaring your decision?" Yohan attempted to explain, but Sara cut him off, "What's my fault? What's my son's fault in all this? Did Jimmy ask yo
Billionaire's Abused Wife 240. Goodbye
Jemma came home from work, finding no one in the living room. She asked Nisha, "Has Aunt Sara come back yet?" Nisha replied, "No, she didn't go to work today." "Not gone? Why? Is she okay?" Jemma asked with concern. "Yeah, she's fine. But because Young Master had a fever last night, she was worried all day," Nisha explained. "Fever?!" "Yeah, he got so sick that he passed out at night, and Sir had to call the doctor at five in the morning," Nisha elaborated. Jemma furrowed her brow, "Why didn't Aunt tell me anything before I left for work?" "She didn't want to stress you out. Even Jia Baby doesn't know about it," Nisha clarified. "Where's Aunt now?" "She's in her bedroom," Nisha replied. "Alright." Jemma handed her bag to Nisha, saying, "Please put my bag in my room. I'll go check on her." With that, Jemma headed towards Sara's bedroom.As soon as she reached the door, she heard Noah’s

One and a half years went by without any calls or messages from Noah.Despite this, Jemma wasn't feeling sad because she knew it was due to the nature of his duties, not because of their issues. She understood the impossibility of regular communication because of his obligations.Meanwhile, Jay returned from France. Upon returning, Jay wasted no time and immediately took Jemma out on a date.In a softly shining corner adorned with roses and candles, Jemma and Jay sat in front of each other, holding each other's hands. Their gaze locked, sounding deep affection and esteem for one another."What's with that look?" Jemma asked with a hint of shyness in her voice."For five years, I've missed seeing you, touching you with love, holding your hand. You can't imagine how tough those years were," Jay confessed."You've learned to fib," Jemma teased, her lips twitching."Me? Why would I lie?" Jay seemed puzzled."Because if you truly mi

Some days later… During dinner, Sara noticed a diamond ring on Jemma's finger, which surprised her. Later, when she went to the master bedroom, she spoke to Yohan. "Yohan..." "Hmm," Yohan replied.He was lying on the bed holding Sara in his arms. "I noticed something today." "What?" "Jemma is wearing a diamond ring." "I'll buy you one too," Yohan responded casually. Sara pushed herself away and sat, feeling more serious. Yohan joined her and asked, "You've never been envious of anyone's jewelry. You have lots of diamond rings but you don't wear them." "I'm not jealous of the girl. I want to say something else." "Wait," Yohan said, picking up his phone, scrolling through it, and then showing it to her. Sara widened her eyes seeing the photos on the phone. "I was right. She's dating someone. But who is this boy?" Sara exclaimed. Yohan put the phone away and explained, "I asked Nolan to gather information the day I found out." "You're keeping tabs on her too? I can't belie
